(Retired Judge) The Honorable Michel M J Shore Teaching Tools.

Judge Michel MJ Shore.For the Legal Teaching Instruments, the Law in Literature & Literature in Law

Provides a context for discussion and instruction in Refugee Law. All of the teaching instruments were written, year by year, in close collaboration with respective law clerks of the Federal Court.

Justice Michel MJ Shore has been twinned by the Court with UQÀM almost since his inception as a judge of the Federal Court. Each year a new presentation is given to law students of renown characters in world literature who appear and bring their grievances before the Federal Court to plead their renown cases for which teaching instruments-judgments are rendered. Thus, the teaching instruments-judgements are to assist them to benefit from the law and key jurisprudence through the narrative gift of world literature. (That constitutes an encyclopedia of references, a dictionary of terms, a gallery of portraits, and even a background music to the cases demonstrating whether a harmony or a cacophony reign in respect of the truth of their narratives.)
